Hello,
I had gone through your query and understand your concern.
Yes, you can request your doctor to keep this matter confidential. Every patient has the right to keep the matter confidential. No need to worry about that. About the insurance issue I think you can pay from your pocket.
Chlamydia is usually treated with a course of antibiotics. The duration depends on the type of antbiotics prescribed to you. Please consult your doctor who will help you with the prescription.
I hope this help.
If you have any other queries I'll be happy to help.
Regards,
Dr.Prathap Kumar
